Formulas

An r by r square minus a quarter of a disc of radius r.

Checked: the A formula agrees with a Monte Carlo measurement of the shape itself, made from its geometric definition, every time the site is built.

Topology lens

Topologically a disc, like every figure here without a hole: Euler characteristic 1. Stretching turns it into a circle, a square or a star. More on the lens.
